“Be yourself, fill your life with good people, and don’t
get a big head. It can all be gone tomorrow.” Molly Sims

American model and actress Molly Sims first became famous for her
appearances in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issues and gained
additional popularity for playing Delinda Deline in the NBC drama

including “Starsky & Hutch” (2004), “The
Benchwarmers” (2006), “Yes Man” (2008) and
“Fired Up!” (2009).

Sims ranked No. 71t on the 2005 list of Maxim Magazine’s

Career:

“Sometimes people want to approach me, especially guys, because
they’re interested in seeing how I respond to them. However,
after they get to know me, they realize that I’m not what they
originally thought. They usually think I’m just a pretty face.
The biggest misconception is that people don’t realize that
I’m southern until they hear me speak.” Molly Sims

A native of Murray, Kentucky, Molly Sims was a law student at the
Tennessee Vanderbilt University when her friend suggested her to take
modeling. She then had her photos sent to agencies in New York and it
paid off soon when the NEXT Modeling Agency signed her. Deserting her
dream of becoming an attorney, Sims flew to London to launch her
professional modeling career. It was not long before she modeled in
other Europe countries such as Germany and Italy.

As her popularity grew, the attractive Sims fronted many major fashion
magazines, including Marie Claire, Vogue, Elle and Madame and Figaro.
This cover girl soon branched out to TV advertisements and worked with
big names like Armani, Chanel and Nautica. Sims later returned to the
U.S to appear in the sexy Victoria’s Secret lingerie
catalog.

Armed with her top model status, Sims began to try her hands in acting.
She had a big break in 2000 when she was hired to replace supermodel
Rebecca Ramijn-Stamos as a host for the long running MTV fashion show
“House Of Style” (2000-?), a series that also formerly
launched the career of Cindy Crawford. The success won Sims subsequent
hosting gigs in “The Victorias Secret Fashion Show” (2001),
“World’s Sexiest Athletes” (2002) and
“MTV’s Mardi Gras 2002.” Meanwhile, Sims posed for
the 2000 and 2001 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit editions, as well as
became the spokesperson for the famous Old Navy clothing store and
appeared on their TV
commercials.

Sims continued acting with guest roles in an episode of “Andy
Richter Controls the Universe” (2002, as Tracy) and “The
Twilight Zone” (2003, as Janet) and also appeared as an injured
girl in the made-for video “Frank McKlusky, C.I.” (2002).
Her big break came when she was cast in the regular role of the sexy,
scheming Delinda Deline in the NBC crime/drama “Las Vegas,”
opposite James Caan, James Les, Josh Duhamel and Nikki Cox. She was on
the show from its debut on September 22, 2003 to its final on February
15, 2008

While working on the Gary Scott Thompson-created series, Sims added
film acting to her endeavors in 2004, when director Todd Phillips cast
her in the supporting part of Mrs. Feldman in the Ben Stiller and Owen
Wilson comedy “Starsky & Hutch.” She followed it up
with a role as Rob Schneider’s wife on the sports/comedy film
“The Benchwarmers” (2006), directed by Dennis Dugan. She
also reprised her role as Delinda Deline in an episode of
“Crossing Jordan” called “Crazy Little Thing Called
Love” (2007). She once again became the Sports Illustrated
Swimsuit Edition cover model in 2006.

After “Las Vegas” departed the airwaves, Sims was cast
opposite Jim Carrey in the Peyton Reed hit comedy film “Yes
Man” (2008), appeared in teen comedy “Fired Up!”
(2009), which was directed and written by Will Gluck, and co-starred
with Donald Faison, Eddie Kaye Thomas and Eddie Guerra in the
action/comedy “Venus & Vegas” (2010). In 2008, she made
several cameos on the Bravo reality series “The Rachel Zoe
Project,” which starred her stylist Rachel Zoe. Next up for Sims,
she appeared with Matthias Chrans, Circus-Szalewski and Laura Gardner
in the 2011 made for TV film “Shredd” and with Julie Adams,
Seth Bailey and Annie Bakke in the film “Chez Upshaw”
(2012). In 2012, she also made guest appearances in the television
series “Royal Pains” (as Grace Hay Adams) and
“Wedding Band” (as Vanessa).
